Would you catch the final words of mine?
Would you catch my words???

Close to the Fridge

"Hey there, Dog Man, now I drink from your bowl."

Hard to believe Rush dominating 77 and 78...

Wish You Were Beer

Hard to choose one.....for me a tie between CTTE, SEBTP, and Red.

One does nothing yet nothing is left undone.

Kind of an odd collection as none are my actual fave album for that year. Out of this group the one I consistently listen to the most and gets my vote is H to He Wink

Isn't Animals the best of 77'???

My favorite is Dark Side, but since it's below SEBT for 73' I'm undecided between Close to the Edge and Selling England by the Pound. I go with Genesis' since it has no votes.

Animals is the number one ranked album for 1977.

1
4.52 | 2960 ratings
QWR = 4.4946
Animals
Pink Floyd     Psychedelic/Space Rock
Studio, 1977
2
4.35 | 1780 ratings
QWR = 4.3118
A Farewell To Kings
Rush     Heavy Prog
Studio, 1977

By the way, I wouldn't necessarily say that these are the highest rated albums, just the highest ranked due to PA's algorithms. The only reason, for instance, why Spectral Mornings is ranked higher than Western Culture and Heresie is because it has more ratings as opposed to better ratings (so Spectral Mornings has higher ratings in terms of more people rated it, but a lower average of all ratings). No reason I can see, though, why Farewell to Kings would be here instead of Animals (Animals has a higher average rating and more ratings). Trying to split the Rush vote? (joking)

By the way, not to be nit-picky, but it is Spectral Mornings, not Spectral Hackett, right?

Oops, my bad! LOL

Yes, 1977 should be Animals and yes, I did mean Spectral Mornings. To be fair I posted this about 3 minutes before going to bed so next time I'll be sure to proofread a bit more carefully!

when i was a kid a doller was worth ten dollers - now a doller couldnt even buy you fifty cents

Selling England :D
